Until now, the resource object itself would be specified. This no longer
works, because it's unclear whether we're adding/removing a collaborator
or a component.
From now on, adding a collaborator is done by pointing to the resource's
'collaborators' URI, not to the resource itself
I was writing a topicLocalInvite handler when I realized how cumbersome
it's becoming, to have separate handlers for local activities. While it
allows me to pick custom specific message names and parameters (which is
why I took that approach in the first place), it causes a lot of
duplication and complexity (because I have to write the remote-activity
handlers anyway; adding local ones doesn't reduce complexity).
So this commit switches the entire system to communicate only using
AP/FF activities, including between local actors.
Limitations:
- Only jcs-eddsa-2022 is supported for now, can add more easily if
needed
- Not verifying forwarded local activities, only remotely-authored ones
- Fetching key and actor with HTTP without using the DB cache, because
the current cache system is deprecated and I haven't yet created the
new one
Limitations:
- Verification of proofs not implemeneted yet, just generation.
Verification probably coming in the next commit.
- Only jcs-eddsa-2022 is supported. Can add more cryptosuites once
they're updated for the requirements of the VC Data Integrity spec.
- Bug: The proofs aren't stored in the DB versions of outgoing activities, i.e.
HTTP GETing an activity won't include the proof. Probably not urgent
to fix. Ideally, change the whole PersistJSONObject/Envelope/etc.
thing to allow to serialize the activity exactly once.
